<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I'm currently a sophomore student at West Virginia University. WVU is about 5 hours away from home and I really don't feel like i fit in socially. I love the sports and don't mind drinking but this town is much more then that. Many students feel the need to go out everyday and rage basically. I'm not sure if I fit in with this mindset as a more laid back person. I just recently applied to West Chester University which is about 40 minutes from home to see if I could get in. WVU may help me build stronger networks after college since it is more nationally known but is that enough of a reason for me to stay? I feel that I would be more comfortable at a smaller school like West Chester University. Please give me suggestions! Also what do you think of West Chester University vs. WVU academically?</p>
<p>Please help! thanks.</p>
